Inkipedia:Requests for Rename/Process

Overview

This is the Requests for Rename page. Archived requests can be found here. The rename policy is as follows:

Requirements

• The account can only be renamed once every six months.
• The account cannot have more than 10,000 edits.
• The user is not seeking the rename to conceal or obfuscate bad conduct.
• The new name is not already registered on the wiki.
• The new name is not too similar to another editor's username.
• The new name should not be inappropriate, at the discretion of an administrator.

Process

To file a new request or nomination, please fill out the following form and place it at the bottom of this page in the 'Current requests' section:

=== YourUsername ===
* Current Name: {{Rename|YourUsername}}
* New Name: {{Userlinks-short|YourNewName}}
* Reason: Reason for changing your name.
 
~~~~ 

• Replace YourUsername with your current username, and YourNewName with your desired username.
• An admin will look through the request and either accept or decline it.
  • Declined requests will be given a reason.
• After a request is accepted, a Bureaucrat will have a final say and carry out the rename.
• Old requests are archived here.
